Adventure Plus - Atari 2600

Price:
$25.00

Quantity:

This is a hack of Atari's popular classic Adventure, with plenty of changes to keep Adventure fans busy for hours! Here's what Steve Engelhardt changed in Adventure Plus:

  • Title Screen Added ("Adventure+"). Thanks to Channel 2, who helped removed the flicker.
  • The Left and right border walls have been removed in the main corridor (underneath the original location of the yellow castle), allowing you to warp from one side to the other.
  • Game 1: Red Dragon added, one new (semi-hidden, accessible only with the bridge) room added to blue maze, many item locations changed.
  • Game 2: Many items are in new locations, including the Chalice. If you have trouble finding the Chalice, drop us a line and we'll give you a hint.
  • Dragons changed to look more like dragons and less like ducks.
  • Chalice, magnet, castle gates, sword, level select numbers, and bridge graphics all changed.
  • Castles made wider at the top, for no particular reason.
  • A Plus("+") sign was added in the castle gate graphic.
  • Barrier Obstacles added to the corridor rooms.
  • All-New Blue Maze
  • All-New Invisible Maze
  • All-New White Castle Maze
  • Revised (very slightly modified) Black Castle Maze
  • Yellow Castle changed to a dark orange color
  • Yellow Key changed to orange to match new yellow castle color
  • Blue Maze changed to a darker blue
  • Startup screen changed from purple to a tan color
  • Level select numbers changed to dark blue
  • Main Corridor colors changed to dark blue and dark purple from the previous shades of green.
  • Yellow Castle and Black Castle moved to different locations.
  • The two "top entry rooms" near the white castle were moved, and the original entrances to them were closed off.

I love hacks like this! The gameplay and even the graphics haven't changed much, however I think it is more challenging than the original. This is a great game even though the "bat" is so frigging annoying!

This is like Metroid Dread for the Atari 2600. It is insanely difficult. I know I already reviewed this game previously, but I just had to mention that. That being said, although I now own both Adventure Plus as well as Metroid Dread, I've found myself spending more time playing the former thus far.

Wow! This is a pretty challenging game. Adventure Plus is to the original Atari Adventure what the "2nd Quest" was to The Legend of Zelda. That said, you are well advised to master the original Adventure before attempting this expanded edition because you will need to utilize many techniques and maneuvers to achieve the goal. Also, knowing the original maps will help you understand the slightly modified mazes that you'll encounter in Adventure Plus. You'll be relying on the bridge and magnet more than ever before, which I see as a really good thing. I have to HIGHLY recommend this to any Adventure fanatics out there. Adventure Plus is truly a celebration of Warren Robinett's legendary game engine.

Have you played Adventure absolutely to death and still want more? You are in luck, because Adventure Plus is here to fill the gap. With enough changes to make the game fresh and new, but not so much that it feels like a different game, Adventure Plus is just the extra action you have been looking for. Enjoy exploring the world of Adventure all over again!

One of the all time great hacks.
We've seen many many hacks of this great game, But in my opinion this is the one that brings the most new elements to the game. Basically it takes everything you already liked about Adventure and amplifies it. Scarier dragons, harder mazes and other suprises that will make the game seem freash even after all these years. If you loved Adventure... You'll love plus this game!!! I give it the highest rating!!.

This game is a wonderful change with alot of much harder levels. The new mazes are hard not like the first Adventure that was way too easy. I give this game a top review its great.

It's great! I haven't really had the time to explore it fully yet, but already I am feeling the thrill of discovery that I had when I first encountered the original Adventure, at a kiosk in a Kmart store back in 1982.

I'll say this... he's made it a much greater challenge to find your way around in this world. And I actually got freaked out when Grindle chased me! (Never happened with the duck-dragons before...)

Looks like a winner! I can't wait to explore it further.

THIS IS A VERY AWESOME HACK VERSION FOR ADVENTURE. GRAPHICS AND GAME PLAY ARE VERY COOL. THE DRAGONS LOOK REAL AND SCARIER, THAN THE ORIGNAL.ALOT MORE MAZES TOO GO THROUGH. FINDING THE CHALICE ALONE IS A CHALLENGE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TOO ALL ADVENTURE FANS.
